US – Bentley Architecture NCS dataset color table - Cells on multiple levels

Overview
ArchCells is a selection of architectural cell libraries for use in MicroStation and/or Bentley Building applications, such as Bentley Architecture www.bentley.com/architecture. Most cells are available as a 2D plan cell, a 3D model cell, or a nested 2D/3D cell. All curved surfaces are meshed elements.

Cell names
The nested cell has a 4-digit number, the 2D plan cell has the suffix -2D, for instance 2703-2D, while the 3D cell has the suffix -3, e.g. 2703-3.

Colors
Individual components within cells are on different colors, which approximate the actual material color as much as possible. Cell libraries are available based on two different colors tables:

a) MSclrs: the standard MicroStation color table (color.tbl),
b) BAclrs: color table used in the NCS dataset for Bentley Architecture

Levels
The level names are based on the US CAD level standard. Libraries are available with two different level approaches:

a) SnglLvls: the entire cell is on one level, but cell components have different colors to allow mapping of rendering properties based on level/color combination,
b) MtplLvls: individual components are on different levels with suffixes of the color number, e.g. –C4, to allow switching off the different cell parts from the display.

Dimensions
Although all cells are based on metric dimensions, they can be placed in imperial files, too, with the ‘true scale’ option in the cell placement command, however, the description always indicates the metric dimensions.
